User talk:LegoK9
LegoK9Thanks for your edits! We hope you'll keep on editing with us. This is a great time to have joined us, because now you can play the Game of Rassilon with us and win cool stuff! Well, okay, badges. That have no monetary value. And that largely only you can see. But still: they're cool!
We've got a couple of important quirks for a Wikia wiki, so let's get them out of the way first.
British English, please
We generally use British English round these parts, so if you're American, please be sure you set your spell checker to BrEng, and take a gander at our spelling cheat card.
Spoilers aren't cool
We have a strict definition of "spoiler" that you may find a bit unusual. Basically, a spoiler, to us, is anything that comes from a story which has not been released yet. So, even if you've got some info from a BBC press release or official trailer, it basically can't be referenced here. In other words, you gotta wait until the episode has finished its premiere broadcast to start editing about its contents. Please check the spoiler policy for more details.
Other useful stuff
Aside from those two things, we also have some pages that you should probably read when you get a chance, like:
- the listing of all our help, policy and guideline pages
- our Manual of Style
- our image use policy
- our user page policy
- a list of people whose job it is to help you
If you're brand new to wiki editing — and we all were, once! — you probably want to check out these tutorials at Wikipedia, the world's largest wiki:
Remember that you should always sign your comments on talk and vote pages using four tildes like this:Thanks for becoming a member of the TARDIS crew! If you have any questions, see the Help pages, add a question to one of the Forums or ask on my talk page. Tangerineduel ☎ 19:59, June 19, 2016 (UTC)
Page moves
I'll keep this brief. Only admin are really allowed to move/rename pages, as non-admins do not have the power to do so fully and properly. Instead, you should always use {{rename}} or {{speedy rename}}, and wait for an admin to carry it out. Even if you're impatient for this result, it's still best to wait it out.
When you moved Golgalith to Golgauth, for example, as a non-admin you were unable to choose not to leave behind a redirect, so I had to, after the fact, delete the old redirect, at the very much incorrect name. You also failed to move any of the links to that page, to the new name. If I were to carry out that speedy rename, I would know that this needs to be done first, and in fact I have SV7, my bot, to really do all that manual work for me.
So please, leave page moves to the admins. {{speedy rename}} is your friend.
